The North Face Women's Triple C Jacket
Providing exceptional thermal warmth, The North Face Metropolis Parka for women with an extra-long cut creates a full-body shield from frigid weather. The notion of attending an outdoor ice sculpture contest or an outdoor hockey game always has some appeal until you sit or stand in one place for a half hour or more. Play it smart in your winter wonderland with this 700 fill down-filled Women's Triple C Jacket from The North Face. With a removable insulated hood, the Triple C Jacket treats you right without making you look like you're part of a mountaineering party. Along the front you'll find a full-length front zipper with a snap closure to seal out any breezes. The Triple C also has an "Electronics acceptance system"--a term that The North Face uses to explain that this long coat is ready for your music player or cellular phone system. There's also hand pockets with a key clip for holding important stuff like your hockey and ice sculpture ticket stubs, or just in case you need to run out to find some hot liquid beverage refreshments.

a wonderful coat!
I just love this coat. It is very light and easy to wear--not heavy at all. I have yet to put it to the test in very cold weather, but so far in 30-40 degree temps I have been toasty warm (but not oppressively so). I'm 5'3" and about 105 lbs, and the xs fit me with room for a sweater or a blazer underneath. The sleeves are a great length. The snaps (instead of velcro) mean I don't rip up my knit scarves or sweaters, and the zip that stops at the knee means I don't have to have a shortened stride. The only downside that I have discovered in this coat is the hood, which doesn't feel quite deep enough. A lot of my head/face is left exposed. Oh, also, I'm not a big fan of the Northface logo on the back of the coat as well as the front, but oh well.

The Perfect Coat!
This coat is lightweight but warm, I did not want to take it off! It packs up great when traveling. It is fitted so you don't look large and puffy. I'm 5"3, 120 lbs. it fit perfect with a little extra room for another jacket underneath. I highly recommend this coat!!!

Exactly what I was hoping for
The North Face Triple C jacket is exactly what I was hoping it would be - lightweight, soft, and sufficiently warm for winters in the Midwest. It really is like walking around in a sleeping bag, only much more attractive. Contrary to other reviews, I think this coat works well for petite frames (I'm only 5'2") and isn't too long.
